Many people in high school cannot wait to go to college and leave their hometowns behind.Questions arise, though,when it comes to all of the decisions involved in choosing a college.

One of the first considerations may be financial.State and public colleges are often the least expensive. Often, though,the better colleges are private and more expensive.It is sad when gifted students cannot attend a college of their choice just for financial reasons.

Another major factor is location.Whether the college is in a small town or large city can have a major impact on its activities.A water lover probably will be more comfortable spending four years near an ocean or a lake.Those who cannot tolerate heat will probably be more comfortable at a northern college.

School size also plays a major role in the decision process.If you want to get to know your teachers and avoid feeling like just a number,a small college is suitable.For those of you who consider yourself a "people person" and want a wide range of activities,a large college is more fitting.

Your area of interest is another factor to consider in the decision-making process if you want to get the most from your education.The whole point of college is to learn what is of interest to you.

Finally,one must take into consideration the colleges to which you can realistically be accepted.An Ivy League school for an average student would probably not be a good match.Similarly,an average school for an above-average student would not work well.The college should provide enough of a challenge for the student to work hard. Although there may not be the perfect college out there,there probably will be one that is close.Those who cannot find a suitable college are probably not looking hard enough.

1.What's the main idea of the text?

A. Procedures of choosing a college.

B. Difficulties in attending a school.

C. Pros and cons of going to college.

D. Considerations in choosing a college.

2.We can infer from the passage that .

A. an Ivy League school is probably a state college

B. a small college may bring you a sense of emptiness

C. gifted students are likely to choose private colleges

D. an average school isn't suitable for an average student

3.A "people person" in Paragraph 4 probably refers to .

A. a person who tends to be alone

B. a person who is good at sociality

C. a person who is afraid of teachers

D. a person who is accustomed to a noisy atmosphere

4.What does the author think of choosing a college?

A. A small college is a better choice for shy students.

B. A northern college has a more comfortable climate.

C. The location of a college is more important than the size of it.

D. You will always find a suitable college if you look hard enough.

The introduction of the iPad,with its touch screen technology,has allowed even very young children to take advantage of a computer.So what if all children in a school were given an iPad to use in class and take home with them?

Anne Laure Bazin works in a school where every child,teacher and teaching assistant is given a free iPad to use in and out of lessons.For her,the main advantage of everyone having an iPad had been the improvement in communication.Documents can be emailed straight over to workmates during a meeting.Children submit their homework by email,or through the school’s learning environment.Teachers now take the register（點(diǎn)名）using their iPad,which means that there is a record of which children are in school,and which classroom they are in.

While the use of the iPad in schools has revolutionized（變革）the way children are taught ,it hasn’t completely replaced more traditional methods of teaching .Worksheets are still used in class as some children prefer the contact with paper.The children all have a textbook and exercise books.In Anne Laure’s school,parents feared that the iPads would replace exercise books and children would lose handwriting skills.Anne Laure says,” The teacher are not ready to let go of the traditional style of teaching.We have welcomed the iPads in so much as they help communication and widen the resources available but we are not ready to let go of paper yet.The children themselves still value their exercise books and depend on them for review.”

Getting older is a natural part of life. Changes as you get older are usually gradual. Certain physical changes are common. How fast your body can burn calories slows over time, which means that your body needs less food energy than before.

How much and how well you sleep will likely change. Most people start needing reading glasses around forty, and many have some hearing loss later in life. Starting in your fifties, bone aging increase. How you feel as you get older depends on many things, including what health problems run in your family and the choices you make.

If your family members have diseases or chronic (慢性的) health problems like high blood pressure, then you may have a greater chance of having those problems yourself. But it doesn’t mean you will definitely have the same problems. Actually, the lifestyle choices you make can help reduce your chances of getting illness that run in your family. And even if you do get a family illness, choosing to be physically active, to eat healthy foods, and to learn how to deal with stress can keep the illness from destroying your ability to enjoy your golden years.

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：湖南省2017屆高三高考沖刺預(yù)測(cè)卷（六）英語(yǔ)試卷 題型：閱讀理解

Ben Underwood is blind. Both eyes were removed when he was just three years old, leaving him with no vision at all. So how on earth does he ride his bicycle, play football and basketball?

Ben uses many common aids for the blind, like speaking software. He's also written a book and does his schoolwork on a hi-tech Braille writer. But what’s unusual is what he doesn’t use. Ben has no guide dog and never uses a white cane. He doesn’t even use his hands. Instead, he sees with sound. Amazingly, Ben’s ears pick up the echoes(回聲）and he can precisely locate where things are. Ben is the only person in the world who sees using nothing but echolocation.

Ben was born perfectly healthy, with dark eyes like his mum. But, when he was two she looked into his eyes and saw something was terribly wrong. This is a rare infant eye cancer that affects only one in every six million. In an attempt to save his sight, doctors immediately began intense chemo and radio therapy, but like a lead balloon. His eyes had been removed.

Just one year after the operation to remove his eyes, in the car he asked his mum what the big building was that they were passing. Ben’s ears were picking up the sounds of the city traffic reflecting from the building’s surfaces. His mum let him play in the street because his sound pictures seemed to make him more aware of danger than his sighted friends.

There’s nothing his friends can do that Ben Underwood won't attempt and conquer. Doctors suspect that Ben Underwood has developed super-hearing to make for his loss of sight. However, tests show that he has only normal hearing. So, has Ben’s brain learned to translate the sound he hears into visual information?

1.What is the main idea of the passage?

A. How to see with ears. B. A boy’s poor life without eyes.

C. The way to fight with fate. D. A boy who “sees” without eyes.

2.In what way does Ben have much common with other blind people?

A. He uses a white cane in his everyday life.

B. He takes advantaged of computer software.

C. He feels the same echolocation as others do.

D. He uses his ears instead of his both hands.

3.What does the underlined part mean in Paragraph 3?

A. His eye looked like a ball. B. The doctor stopped their efforts.

C. Nothing really worked. D. His mother was frightened.

4.What can we infer from the passage?

A. The case of Ben has shocked the doctors.

B. The case of Ben is common to children.

C. Quite a few believe what Ben has said.

D. lien does have the super-hearing ability.
